Chapter 153 Noble Man

Seeing this old Taoist priest again, Tang Luoyu couldn't help but feel a little speechless.

If it is true that it is fate, then several people present do not believe it. But if it is not fate, then it does not make sense for this veteran to meet them again and again.

After all, this is not the only way to Beijing, and the one they took was not the nearest one.

Even if he followed them deliberately, it was a coincidence.

Tang Luoyu sighed, it seemed that if he didn't let this old man tell his fortune, he might not be able to do it.

"Forget it, I'll do it." Tang Luoyu thought for a while, but the old Taoist might not be able to tell that she was reborn, so he took a step forward, walked to the old Taoist's convenience, and said humbly and politely, "Taoist priest, I'm sorry to bother you.

.”

"It's necessary." Seeing her respectful attitude, the old Taoist also understood that the matter had been settled, so he pretended to be mysterious and said, "You have profound blessings that cannot be revealed."

So you don’t want her?

Tang Luoyu frowned, wondering what kind of medicine this old Taoist priest was selling in the gourd.

Xue Lince stood aside, thoughtful.

Did this old man see through his identity?

So my heart skipped a beat, and I stepped forward and said, "Does the Taoist priest want to settle it for me?"

The old Taoist nodded with a smile, stroked his beard and said, "You are going to Beijing to take the exam this time, right?"

Going north at this time of year, their intentions were not difficult to guess, so they simply nodded.

"It's not good, it's not good." The old Taoist looked at Xue Lince's face carefully, then closed his eyes and made some calculations, and then said with a look of horror, "You are rushing to take the exam this time, and your fate is very bad. This is a bad omen!"

When the old Taoist priest said this, everyone around him felt relieved.

That's right. If it wasn't for the purpose of defrauding money, why would you keep following them?

"Does the Taoist priest have any solution?" Tang Luoyu stepped forward and looked at Xue Lince worriedly.

The two exchanged glances, and Xue Lince understood what Tang Luoyu meant, so he cooperated and said, "Yes, the Taoist priest can tell me and my wife how to resolve it."

"It's not difficult at all." The old Taoist naturally understood what they were talking about, so he stretched out his hand, palm up, to signal them to put money.

The followers standing aside were stunned.

He really couldn't understand what these great masters were thinking, and they actually started fortune-telling...

Tang Luoyu took out a one hundred tael silver note from his pocket and put it in the old Taoist priest's hand, thinking that he was spending money to buy some good luck.

But the old Taoist priest didn't even open his eyes. He just felt that there was just a light banknote in his hand, so he shook his head: "No, no, no."

Isn't that enough?

Tang Luoyu frowned, took out another hundred taels from his arms, and placed it in his hand.

The old Taoist opened his eyes and shook his head: "No, no, no."

Tang Luoyu was a little annoyed. With these two hundred taels, he could buy one or two hundred girls in a disaster-prone place. How could this old man be so greedy?

Just as he was about to speak, Xue Lince stopped him. He took away the banknote that Tang Luoyu put in Lao Dao's hand, took out a copper plate from his arms, bowed first, and then placed it on Lao Dao's open palm.

Ke Ran and Chai Jin, who were standing aside, couldn't help but frown.

The two of them were not short of money, but they also felt that the old man was a little too greedy.

It's just that Xue Lince's behavior now made both of them silent.

The old Taoist raised the corner of his mouth and held the copper plate that Xue Lince put in his hand: "Yes, that's good."

So you weren’t here to cheat money?

This was Tang Luoyu's first reaction. Then she looked at Xue Lince and saw that he looked thoughtful, so she didn't ask any more questions.

"You are destined to have a noble man in the west. After entering the capital, you will go to Xicheng to find your noble man." The old Taoist twisted his beard and smiled, "You have a noble name with wood in it. If you get his help this time, you will definitely be able to soar to the sky."

His name is Daimu, and he lives in Xicheng...

Tang Luoyu frowned: "Master, can you elaborate on it?"

If this old man had accepted the two hundred taels from her, or if he was greedy and wanted to raise the price, Tang Luoyu would naturally not believe him, but now that he only wanted one copper plate, this was indeed somewhat credible.

However, if you are an expert, you may not name the person. After all, the secret cannot be revealed...

It's just that the old Taoist didn't play tricks as Tang Luoyu guessed, but directly answered with two words: "Okay."

This was even more unexpected.

"Bai Changlin." The old Taoist smiled and said the name lightly.

Tang Luoyu frowned. The surname Bai was rare in the first place, and the chance of having the same name was really small. In addition, he lived in Xicheng where powerful people gathered, so he could only be Bai Changlin, the minister of Dali Temple.

Xue Lince had never heard of this name, but seeing Tang Luoyu's expression, he knew that this person was definitely not simple.

"The Taoist priest is talking about... Qing of Dali Temple, Duke Bai, Changlin?" Tang Luoyu thought about it for a while, but still said the name.

She didn't understand what this veteran wanted to do. After all, they came to Beijing to take the exam and not to file a complaint. It felt a little strange to go to pay homage to an official in Dali Temple.

"Yes, it's him." The old Taoist had an inscrutable look on his face, which prevented the others from asking any more questions. "Remember, remember, this person is your destined one. After arriving in Beijing, you must pay him a visit."

After saying these words, the old Taoist stood up and left.

Tang Luoyu was still deep in thought. Ke Ran beside her coughed slightly, and she came back to her senses.

"How is it?" Ke Ran spoke at this moment.

"I don't know, I originally thought he was a money liar." Tang Luoyu frowned, "Even after I finished speaking, he would give me money when I reacted, but he left without waiting. It's really unacceptable.

Know exactly what to do.”

Seeing that she had no idea, Ke Ran simply stopped asking: "Let's take it one step at a time. Let's rest quickly. We have to travel later."

Tang Luoyu had no choice but to do this.

the other side.

"My lord...why are you doing this?" The follower looked at his lord speechlessly.

He had wanted to ask this sentence since the time when their elders reported their names to those people. Even if they had to bend the knot, couldn't they just use their original identities?

Why do you have to turn around and pretend to be an old Taoist priest?

"Tsk," Bai Changlin looked at his follower with disgust, "You idiot, you idiot!"

Okay, there’s no need to ask yourself.

Bai Changlin curled his lips and did not continue to ask.

After that, Tang Luoyu and the others did not encounter the old Taoist priest again, and arrived in the capital safely.

Looking at the city wall that was several feet tall, Tang Luoyu raised her head and felt a little dizzy.

"Finally we are here." Xue Lince also breathed a sigh of relief. He had seen the ancient city wall before, and in modern times, he was used to seeing tall buildings, so he did not feel that the city wall in front of him was majestic.

"Yes." Tang Luoyu took a deep breath, feeling that a new battle was about to begin.
